Northwest Indiana Discussion

M&Ms: BOY, you ain't never going to learn, are you? Who are you to question combat vets when you HAVE NEVER been in combat, except when you watch John Wayne movies or Rambo movies! Your nothing but an armchair warrior, a wannabe...........! And since you or your so-called combat vet did not answer my questions to you, I find that you two Bozos are a pair of fakes, phonies, trying to decieve people that you were combat vets........... you sorry individuals! SHAME on your two fakes! See folks, one must watch oneself, the world is full of deceivers and fakes, and M & Ms, and his boy are fakers! Nice try boys, now go watch your Vietnam movies. That's the closest you two will ever get to Vietnam! Ha!

Looks like I hit bone.
If you had any shame you'd be , but you're shameless.

BTW: The Squaking Chickens operated in I Corps at the time of the battle.
An RTO is a radio telephone operator.
I don't have a clue regarding the firebase names. I left RVN in '66 and was long gone from Uncle Sugar's Army before any of them were established.

See! You can't answer any of my questions to ya...........excuses, excuses, excuses(sign of a loser)...............you guys left Camp Evans a dump! Shame? you don't even know what the word is...........................as I said before, you two are a sorry piece of crap. Now go burn your crap! You guys still don't have indoor plumbling! LOL!

If you were really in the 101st, you would NEVER let the reference to Squawking Chickens pass, especially from someone who wasn't in the division, especially a leg (Perhaps you'd like to tell us what a "leg" is). You missed it twice.

Do you even now know what Squawking Chickens refers to?

Let me give you a hint: Screaming Eagles ... Squawking Chickens

If you had ever been in the 101st you would know I had to have served in the 1st Air Cav (II Corps Central Highlands). One brigade of the 101st followed us to RVN about 6 months after we arrived, and served in II corps as well. Some time after I left, the 101st moved north to reinforce the Marines.

I thought you were a former Marine because they were in the A-Shau Valley a year or two BEFORE the 101st was in there. Yes, the 1st Cav was headquartered at Camp Evans which was named after a dead Marine. I was a artillery RTO with the FO team, attached to B Co. 2/506 Inf, 101st Airborne, 3rd Brigade, and during the Hamburger Hill fight, was a artillery AG on the 105s right across from the Hill at FB Berchtesgaden, from May 10th to June 1st of 1969; then became attached to the 2/506th Infantry till December 15, 1969. I was home in time for New year's eve. BTW, there was a old French airstrip in the middle of the valley floor, along with A Battery, 2/319th artillery. I was at all the firebases in the valley, and humped the valley, while with the infantry, pulled palance guard at most of them too. I was only 19! Me no chicken hawk as the North Vietnamese called us; but we always left a 101st Screaming Eagle patch on the dead bodies in the valley to let them know who KIA'em. PS~The A-Shau Valley and Hamburger Hill is in I Corp. I spend 13 months there, all in I Corp area.

The Marines were in I Corps in '65-'66. AFAIK they were never in II Corps.
